J-Prop EP Feathering Propeller

J-Prop EP feathering propeller for engines from 8 to 110 HP, for shafts and saildrives; new blade shape for efficiency and low vibration, faster feathering, automatic forward/reverse blade rotation.

Description

The J-Prop EP Feathering Propeller is an evolution of J-Prop's AC and SDA models, with a new blade shape for improved efficiency and vibration-free running and a faster move to the fully feathered position. It is available for engines from 8 to 110 HP, for both shaft and saildrive installations.

Key features

  • Automatic blade rotation changes pitch quickly from forward to reverse, giving equal power in both directions and strong reverse performance
  • Free rotation while sailing to reach the feathered position for minimum drag
  • Helical (continuously engaged) gears keep all blades at identical pitch with low wear
  • Stainless steel and aluminium-bronze alloy components to reduce wear and corrosion
  • Elliptical blades with equal thrust ahead and astern

Pitch adjustment

Pitch is changed by removing the anode from the ogival nose and unscrewing the protective gears, then turning the ogival nose to the required setting following the handbook.

Specifications

Design FeaturesDesign Features Helical Gears J-Prop uses only helical (or continuously engaged) gears, resulting in two distinct advantages: The blades of the propeller will have identical pitch at all times. Helical gears have a large contact area producing more strength and less wear. Materials J-Props component
Automatic Blade RotationAutomatic Blade Rotation The most important feature of all J-Prop propellers is the automatic blade rotation, which during engine operation quickly changes the pitch from forward to reverse. Due to this feature you will achieve the same power in both operations and an even better performance in reve
Pitch AdjustmentPitch Adjustment In order to adjust the pitch there are only a few and very easy operations for removing the zinc and protective gears. As with all J-Prop models, the pitch of the J-Prop EP propeller can easily be changed by removing the anode from the ogival nose and unscrewing the protective gears
